Radio delete plates
I have one in my truck and I wonder if anyone else would like one. I found someone who can reproduce it in plastic. Let me know if you are interested and maybe we could have a batch made.
(Now if Ranchero50 could make some out of billet aluminum, that would be REALLY cool.)

Re: Radio delete plates
I would like to have one made for a 67. i have one for a 68-72 and had thought about cutting a section out to make it fit for my 67. how much would they be?

Re: Radio delete plates
I'm not sure. I'm trying to figure out how much demand there is. I was not aware that the '67 radio delete plate was different. I would need a '67 plate to use as a template in order to have more made.

Re: Radio delete plates
It would be super slick if a billet single din stereo adapter plate could be made. The black plastic metra doesn't seem right with the chrome hvac controls under it.

Re: Radio delete plates
That is not the same as the delete plate for my '69 Ford. My part number is C8TB-8104371-AW. Anyone know what year the plate in the auction is for? I thought it might be the rare '67 only plate but I believe that one is narrower.

Re: Radio delete plates
Ive made this mistake once already. I bought a delete plate that came out of a 67 from a junk yard here. Cleaned it, painted it, then figured out it wouldnt fit. At the same time figured out a wiring harness from a 67 wont work in a 69 either.

Re: Radio delete plates
it could be a 67 delete plate i dont know. you would have to get the measurement on the bolts for the plate to fiugre out if it woudl fit what.
Re: Radio delete plates
has a c7 part #. itd be my guess that its a 67 plate. its at 10.50 right now. someone might get a pretty fair deal on it

Re: Radio delete plates
how about a coin operated one that says beer. your friends would be putting coins in it all day long and not be able to get it to give them any beer.
